Students making an enterprise in real time
Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The Europe of the day is suffering from economic problems and a number of students can not find their way to work. This project gives entrepreneurship for answer both Europe and our students. The project is aimed for new approaches of teaching entrepreneurship. The goal for students is to give idea of being entrepreneur in school environment. During the project there will be six small companies with different ideas, markets, skills and school curricular subjects. Each of these companies will give possibility for differents types of learners. To try the entrepreneurship is one way to open perspectives for new career choises for students, which, in our opinion, is a good way to prevent early school leaving and increase motivation among students. The project emphasize the of learning by doing, but at the same time using new technologies and methods, which gives extra value for schools too. The participating schools will open new approaches for co-operation with existing businesses and local authorities. This kind of co-operation might be new for schools, and also for local partners as the ideas come from young students who are tomorrows consumers, workers and hopefully, entrepreneurs. All these activities have an international aspect too. Modern day Europe need internationally active schools and students. All our activities are done both local and international language, and we get to know cultural aspects of six differents countries and, in the end, get the know-how for business with our partners. Everything is done in a safe school environment and results shown in EU-based programs that also are safe for students. For our schools, located in Finland, Slovenia, Spain, Czech Republic, Bulgaria and Italy, both international aspect and entrepreneurship are new methods for school environment. Some are more experienced than others, and there are great chances share ideas of best practises and experiences. By the end of the project we want to see entrepreneurship as permament part of our local school curriculum. We also want to continue this international co-operation after EU funding with smaller projects and possibly friendship school activities. The best achievement in more distant future is to see our students actually to become entrepreneurs themselves, and even better in multicultural, international environment. With this project there are benefits in local, regional, national and international level.
